Lomo Curado is a dry-cured pork loin that is very popular in Spain as part of a traditional tapas course. Always extremely lean, this cured meat is flavored with garlic, paprika, sugar, and other spices, bringing out the full flavor of the pork. An exciting alternative to Serrano Ham or chorizo, slice it very thinly and drizzle the dish with extra virgin olive oil. Best served with Manchego cheese; it makes a great sandwich on crusty bread.

I really enjoy cured meats and charcuterie. This is a lovely loin that has been cured and is just fantastic. You can slice thin or thick for sandwiches or to put on a tray served with cheese, nuts, and fruits. The price is great for the Lomo vs what you might pay for other non sliced cured meats. I highly recommend!

Wonderful appetizer for a fiesta

This was a big hit! I sliced the loin thinly and soaked it in olive oil the day before serving. This modified some of the salty taste and tenderized the meat a bit.

Mom Mom already told me to send more

No fat on the tenderloin, very very tender , subtle and unique flavor

Excellent

This is low in fat, and has a slightly spiced flavor. The flavor is mellow and not overwhelming at all. Something my family looks forward to every year at this time.

lomo curado

How anyone can make pork tenderloin into something this tough is beyond me! Just awful.

Lomo Curado

Couldn't be happier. Ordering was easy...the lomo was delivered in 2 days...well protected...great quality...an entire pound of it...and it tastes divine. I feel the price is well worth it compared to the smaller portions and inferior quality I've found at other specialty shops. I will certainly be ordering this product again!

Lomo Curado

It's a pleasure to be able to get such a treat and have it be so lean. Unfortunately, it was just so good that it's all gone...and I didn't share. Merry Christmas to me!

Went too fast on the party tray!

This definitely needs to be sliced very thin or it is (much) too chewy, but it is very flavorful with a great meaty texture that is very appetizing. Maybe a bit much on the salty side for some, but this is preserved meat, so watch the blood pressure-another good reason to slice thin. The cost is a bit pricey, but with proper slicing it goes a LONG way. It was a big hit on our party tray. Everybody wanted to know what it was and kept coming back for more. I was away from my kitchen so all I had was one sharp knife appropriate for shaving--my hands, wrists, and careful eyes got a good workout--so a good adjustable meat slicer would be handy. This pairs very well with all kinds of cheeses, but sharp cheddar or spicy blended cheeses do very well. A very good Sangria is also excellent with this flavorful treat!
